London Gatwick is gearing up for its busiest summer season since 2019, with a record number of airlines, destinations and expanded long-haul options giving passengers more choice than ever before.
The first in a number of new services launched earlier this month with Emirates welcoming its fourth-daily flight to Dubai. Operated on Airbus A350 – the first to serve England – the service re-introduces Premium Economy for London Gatwick passengers and offers the latest departing Dubai–Europe flight of any airline, giving holidaymakers even more time in the city before heading home.
This summer, London Gatwick passengers will be able to choose from more than 230 destinations across Europe, North America, the Caribbean, Asia, the Middle East and Africa – the airport’s broadest network since 2019.
With 62 airlines operating from Gatwick this summer, passengers will enjoy the airport’s widest choice of carriers ever, including eight new arrivals – Jet2, AirAsia X, Condor, Air Arabia, Air France, Eurowings, Animawings and Beijing Capital Airlines. Existing carriers are also expanding their connectivity.
Royal Air Maroc will begin serving Tetouan in Morocco twice weekly from 29 March, Norwegian will strengthen the airport’s ties to Denmark with a new service to Aalborg from 2 April, while Air Transat will launch a new route to Canadian capital Ottawa from 15 May. SWISS will also be increasing the frequency of its Zurich service to twice-daily from 29 March.
